Hello feistyfilly1

 

I notice from a previous theard http://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Pay-Monthly-Services/can-someone-help/m-p/976361#M41575 that you only got a replacement for your previous phone in January this year at a discount and even then, you were not due an upgrade until December 2012.

 

If this is the case, it would be unlikely Vodafone would be able to give you a further subsidised phone when it has only been three months since the last new phone.

 

Your options now would be very limited when you have so long to go before you are eligible for an upgrade and the cheapest option would be to purchase a new phone at your own expense.  You could cancel your present contract, which would leave you free to negotiate a new contract with a new phone.

 

The other option would be an additional line which with a new phone but that would mean paying for two contracts.

 

If your phone is repairable, there is always the repair route.

Hi feistyfilly1,

 

There's no harm in us looking all the same! At least that way we can go through the different options together to help you weigh up the costs and benefits of each route. Simply email us using the instructions I've sent via Private Message. You can find your PM inbox here. :smileywink:

Cheers, Ben
